Chapter 947: Lyon's Weakness
Chapter 947: Lyon's Weakness
Strange... Did I guess wrong?
Unaware that the Director was brutally interrogating the little black piece, Lyon, hugging Jovah, crouched in the Mirror World, staring at the security officer with all his doubts. After observing him for a while, he found no abnormalities, causing him to hesitate.
Could it be that he wasn't manipulated by the Serpent Director to deliberately approach and reveal information, but was truly a born chatterbox and do-gooder? Was I overthinking it before?
Watching the security officer tremble as he was tied to the execution post, awaiting the jailer's punishment, Lyon still felt something was amiss. He tried two more methods to test him but received no response.
The only change in the security officer was when the jailer approached him with a bloody whip, his face cold. At that moment, a large patch between his legs became wet.
It seemed that he couldn't hide it anymore...
Lyon glanced at the direction of the Bronze Gear and, seeing that his gaze hadn't left, the Serpent Director couldn't help but click his tongue in slight annoyance.
The 039th abnormality, the Tenement Oak, brought by Oliviah, could perfectly hide herself and Lyon, but this concealment required the stability of the carrier's flesh.
Right now, the security officer was about to undergo a whipping. If he was beaten until he bled, the Tenement Oak hidden in his back's blood vessels would be affected, causing a large patch of tattoo-like tendrils to bloom.
At that moment, Lyon, hiding in the Mirror World, would immediately react and discover their location. Staying hidden would no longer be meaningful.
'Sigh... Let's go.'
As the Serpent Director sighed in frustration, preparing to leave the Tenement Oak's globular fruit, the Red-haired Director in another globular fruit raised his hand to stop him.
'Don't move!'
'???!!'
The Serpent Director was startled and then asked in confusion:
'Why stop me? This person is about to be whipped. If we stay, we'll be exposed. It's better to leave now...'
'As long as you stay still and don't move, we won't be exposed.'
'Huh?'
'Just watch.'
After being stopped by the Red-haired Director, the confused Serpent Director sat back down, intending to see if Oliviah had any other ideas.
However, the moment he sat down, the metal buckle on the security officer's belt flickered slightly, and a fluffy sheep's tail lazily emerged from it, connecting to the officer's buttocks.
"Hmm?"
At the moment the Secret Tail was successfully positioned, the jailer, who had raised his whip, paused slightly, his eyes filled with confusion. He stood there for a while, then, surprisingly, walked past the terrified security officer towards the next execution post.
'What's this?'
'It's Lyon's abnormality.'
Glancing at the sheep's tail on the security officer's buttocks, which seemed to have died and didn't move at all, the Red-haired Director smiled lightly and explained:
'This thing comes from a near-god-level great demon. It can perfectly erase its own existence, making people ignore it. Just now...'
'I understand this part!'
The Serpent Director interrupted impatiently:
'You know what I'm asking! I want to know why he's doing this!'
'Because he's kind~'
After glancing at the Serpent Director, the Red-haired Director swayed happily and replied with a smile:
'Although Lyon's methods are a bit... grand, he has always been a soft-hearted person. He doesn't like seeing innocent people suffer because of him.'
With my understanding of Lyon, if there's still a choice, he would never let this person be whipped to the point of injury. He would definitely save him before the whip falls.
"..."
Tsk... Such a soft heart!
Looking at the hand that had emerged from the "mirror surface" of the belt buckle and untied the rope around the security officer, Serpent Director couldn't help but scoff inwardly.
If this kid could be a little more ruthless and wait until the security officer had been whipped a few times before saving him, he would have definitely discovered Olivia and himself. But... Hmph!
Serpent Director shook his head slightly and turned to look at the Red-haired Director, narrowing his eyes as he asked, "You're on good terms with him, right? Why did you tell me his weakness so easily? Aren't you worried that I'll use it against him?"
"..."
You really don't have a clue...
After hearing Serpent Director's question, the Red-haired Director glanced at him with a hint of disdain in his eyes.
Putting aside the few abnormalities on Lyon's body that could save his life, even with his current identity as a half-dead realm lord, dying is like clocking out for the day. Even if his soul is completely shattered, he might climb back up from the bottom of Terminus Cliff after a few decades.
Moreover, I already told you that after discovering the connection between low-grade fever syndrome and hair color, Lyon will definitely seek information from Bull Lord. Do you think that after understanding the situation, he won't specifically ask for a few abnormalities to restrain you? I suspect he might have even asked for abnormalities to restrain me.
Besides, although Lyon is soft-hearted, he can be tough when necessary. At critical moments, he can make ruthless decisions and is by no means indecisive.
If you really use this so-called "weakness" to deal with him, and he realizes that he can't save both sides, he will most likely eliminate both the "robber" and the "hostage." Then, he'll return to the Deadly Realm, get a gun forged by the 3rd Generation Lord from Emma, and sit on Terminus Cliff, shooting them one by one...
In short, you'd better stop this nonsense! With your brain, which is so shallow that you can't even see a few wrinkles, what makes you think you can compete with my Lyon?
"..."
I have a feeling... Olivia seems to be thinking about something very rude.
Feeling a bit stung by the Red-haired Director's disdainful gaze, Serpent Director, with slightly reddened ears, stood up and argued, "I admit! He's more formidable than I initially thought, but that doesn't prove that he has the potential to change the entire present world, as you claimed!"
See, he's getting anxious.
The Red-haired Director, well aware of his "old friend's" tendency to fall in love, blinked and chose not to provoke him further. Instead, he nodded and said calmly, "You're right. What just happened only proves that Lyon is a cautious and good person. It's not enough to prove his abilities, and further observation is needed.
I've been stopping you from exposing yourself just now to ensure our bet can continue. Hurry up! Make him cry quickly, or it'll be too late!"
